“Choose to view life through God's eyes. This will not be easy because it doesn't come naturally to us. We cannot do this on our own. We have to allow God to elevate our vantage point. Start by reading His Word, the Bible...Pray and ask God to transform your thinking. Let Him do what you cannot. Ask Him to give you an eternal, divine perspective.”
― Swindoll Charles R.

“My point is, sometimes letting go of things we care about can cause greater things to come our way. Think of Job in the Bible. Satan used him as his plaything and took all the man had. But Job, he kept his faith. He loved God, knew true love, and didn't let the worldly things sway him. And God blessed him for it, with twice as much as he had before.”
― Allyson Kennedy, The Fall

“…the fruit merely a manifestation of what was inside the tree all along.”

“While God does want us to be open with others, he also encourages us to put boundaries in place as we do. He talks repeatedly about guarding our hearts. So what’s the difference? Hiding is a response out of fear, while guarding is a proactive choice to protect what matters most. In other words, we’re not to deliberately put something of worth where it won’t be valued.”
